Also, folks down in UL felt the only reason why he was chosen so low were his age and relative "lack" of football experience. Other than that this guy has every intangible needed to succeed at the "mike" position. Yesterday we were caught up in an email that lambasted the FO for poor draft decisions. Drafting players like RM will only prove the our FO is making generous steps in changing the opinion that we're caught in a slipper slope for poor drafts. He'll be a special teams all-star and hopefully develop into a beast up the middle. 6-0 foot 245 pound monster who ran the fastest 4.0 at the combine: goodnight.

He really ran one of the fastest 40s?
